Welcome !! PUSH-as-Rx ®™ is leading the field with laser focus supporting our youth sport programs. The PUSH-as-Rx ®™ System is a sport specific athletic program designed by a strength-agility coach and physiology doctor with a combined 40 years of experience working with extreme athletes. At its core, the program is the multidisciplinary study of reactive agility, body mechanics and extreme motion dynamics. Through continuous and detailed assessments of the athletes in motion and while under direct supervised stress loads, a clear quantitative picture of body dynamics emerges. Exposure to the biomechanical vulnerabilities are presented to our team. Immediately, we adjust our methods for our athletes in order to optimize performance. This highly adaptive system with continual dynamic adjustments has helped many of our athletes come back faster, stronger, and ready post injury while safely minimizing recovery times. Results demonstrate clear improved agility, speed, decreased reaction time with greatly improved postural-torque mechanics. PUSH-as-Rx ®™ offers specialized extreme performance enhancements to our athletes no matter the age.

The Connection Between Chiropractic & Spinal Manipulation

About 80% of patients visiting a chiropractor receive some type of spinal manipulation, while chiropractors offer a number of treatments for musculoskeletal conditions. Spinal manipulation is a distinctive type of hands on treatment (manual therapy) that’s different from several other kinds of manual therapy such as massage and mobilization. While chiropractors sometimes consult with spinal manipulation as an “alteration” or a part of an adjustment, the term spinal manipulation is simpler to define, more accurate, and more widely used global.

WHAT’S SPINAL MANIPULATION?

Spinal manipulation is the use of a force (a rapid, shallow push) to spinal joints that moves the goal joint or nearby joints slightly beyond their normal range of movement. Spinal manipulation is often accompanied by an audible “pop”. This can be considered to be dissolved gas discharged from joint fluids with a quick drop in pressure. This gas abruptly joins into little bubbles, making a popping sound. Studies have demonstrated that it is not always essential to hear the audible pop for a spinal manipulation to work.

Chiropractors perform the majority of spinal manipulations in the US, followed by osteopathic physicians, physical therapists, and medical doctors.

WHAT IS THE AIM OF SPINAL MANIPULATION?

Restore function to mechanical disorders of the spinal column and the aim of spinal manipulation is to reduce pain in.

Your chiropractor is trained in this highly-specialized form of manual therapy and may discover if your condition is suitable for this type of treatment. Spinal manipulation continues to be demonstrated to be most successful when coupled with lifestyle adjustments, as well as active treatments, such as stretching and exercise.

WHAT CONDITIONS DOES SPINAL MANIPULATION TREAT?

While the precise mechanism through which spinal manipulation works is doubtful as of this time, numerous theories are being studied, including stretching tight muscles, stimulating the nervous system, unlocking trapped spinal joints and freeing entrapped joint folds.

Spinal manipulation was proven to be safe and effective for specific types of recent start neck and back malady, along with for more lasting or recurring musculoskeletal ailments. Your chiropractor is trained to identify any serious underlying conditions that might preclude spinal manipulation or perhaps manual treatment in virtually any form. She or he would then refer you to the appropriate medical specialist.

In conclusion, your chiropractor is extraordinarily trained to determine if you are a candidate for spinal manipulation and can also offer alternative kinds of manual therapy, together with active self-treatment recommendations.
